Fox Farms - Grow Big / Tiger Bloom / Big Bloom - What else?

I've been using Fox Farms nutients - Grow Big, Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom with success.

I was looking to add additional nutrients to increase my yield and potency...

Can anyone recommend a nutrient or two that works well with the Fox Farms trio?

Thanks

Increase you yield: Add more light, use a high yielding strain.
Increase your potency: Get better genetics.

You can throw as many chemicals you want at your plant but they really won't make a big difference.

i grow in FF Soil use what you have along with all the micro-nutes,,,I also have a bottle of cal-mag,,,I ues a teaspoon in my feeding's when needed and also use Flora-necter twords the end of flowering, along with humbolt's Gravity,,,Than flush with floro-clean.
I flush really good and I'm proud of my bud's.

other than carb loading, which has to be done properly to work, nutes are not a good plan to increase yield. The amount of nutes you need is going to be determined by the size of the plant and how fast it is growing. The speed it grows at depends on the amount of sugar production. As the plant's growth increases it will require more nutrients, but it is not the abundance of nutrients that will cause increased growth rate, it is the availability of light and space primarily. This means that to hit your potential you will need a certain amount of nutes to feed growth, but once you hit that perfect point no additional nutes will cause the plant to grow any faster, you would have to increase light, and then look at bottlenecks like co2/oxy, nutes, pot size, etc to increase yields.

There's a lot of misleading advertising and flat out misinformation on additives. No one mentiones that too little nutes mostly restricts growth, but on the other end an overabundance can kill a plant quite quickly.

Use molasses for carbo. A quality backstrap molasses is the best. Use it mostly during the flower stage, and you will see a very potent aroma from your ladies. Thats pretty much what I use. Standard Foxfarm nutrients (lighter than recommended) and then add a little Fungal/bacterial addative and some light algae, and some cal/mag, and the molassas. And I have done really well with just a 600

get some beastie bloomz. they are making a huge diference on this grow from last grow with just the trio. i also switched from peatmoss soiless mix to FF oceon forrest that probably has alot to do with it also.
